Rolling Pin Substitute

Okay my friends…this is a quick helpful hint that I thought might come in handy for some of you this holiday season.

Up until month ago, I never had a rolling pin. Never.

Instead, I used a bottle of wine.

While the shape is a bit different, it absolutely got the job done.

If the bottle is chilled, the dough doesn’t stick as much.

If the dough sticks, add a bit of flour to the bottle {as you would with a rolling pin}. It’ll wash right off.

And heck, to celebrate your Rolling Pin MacGyver success, you can enjoy a glass of that wine. I mean, it’s already out, so why not. Right?

Right.

While those cooking around the holidays can see it as stressful, take it all with a grain of salt {or glass of wine}. Enjoy your time with family and friends. There’s always a way to fix a mistake or to find a substitute…or at the very least, you’ll have a great story.
